The Forex market is the most lucrative liquid business in existence today. With the exception of a very volatile market, the positions can liquidate immediately and the orders placed are always guaranteed to be executed 100% without failure.
Most traders believe that aiming for ten to 15 PIPs every transaction is much easier that aiming to 30 to 50. They base this belief on the slow movement of the market. It may well be moving on the ten to 15 PIPs range and it may seem to take forever to move to the 30 to 50 PIPs range. Aiming for ten to 15 PIPs seems like the right thing to do, right? Wrong. Most of the traders who think this way have been doing so for a long time. They usually have to put in much effort in order to break even every month.
